In short
Slash Digital Lab is a software and AI company in Bogotá, Colombia, that US companies hire as a nearshore partner. Bogotá runs on UTC-5 all year: the same clock as New York in winter and one hour behind it in summer, so calls, reviews and releases happen in your business day.
US clients include Cartier USA. We build custom software, AI and data platforms in English, invoice in US dollars and sign under US law when you ask.
